(no subject)

I fractured my finger bone in a really dumb kitchen incident - had the finger looped in a cabinet pull, then the cabinet door went one way and my finger went the other. Given that, it's about the best outcome I could hope for: my left (non-dominant) hand, fourth finger, treatment is just splinting for a couple of months, and although my finger might look a little funny afterwards (I am told the bone fragment is unlikely to reattach in exactly the place it was before) with any luck it should heal and have full functionality. And I can do most of what I could before while it's healing (except violin or piano, grump, but at least I got through the big Christmas things first) and in principle I can even type. In practice, it's awkward enough that although typing something this length is fine (and texting/chatting is fine because I can do that on my phone one-fingered), you probably won't be seeing me type long rants for the next couple of months. Which I am annoyed about, because I have several, including --

-The annual Yuletide canon rant (I will probably post a placeholder on this tomorrow, because I have That Many Feelings)
-The not-so-annual Yuletide beta canon rant (I watched a movie! And liked it!)
-justplainsavannahd, I am halfway through Les Huguenots and I really love Nevers
-esteven, I am 1.5 acts through Chatelet Don Carlos and wow it is shiiiiippy
-I keep meaning to write up that post about teaching Sunday School but it will just have to wait even longer
-probably other stuff
